Abstract excerpt
Non-synonymous single-nucleotide polymorphism (nsSNP) of genes introduces amino acid changes to proteins, and plays an important role in providing genetic functional diversity. To understand the structural characteristics of disease-associated SNPs, we have mapped a set of nsSNPs derived from the online mendelian inheritance in man (OMIM) database to the structural surfaces of encoded proteins. These nsSNPs are...
